Poor bloke yes, but awe inspiring and superhuman like for the southern half of the ride. 900+ k in under 3 days in those conditions is just nuts. Can't wait to follow his next attempt.
I wonder how much sleep deficit and strategy had to do with accidents like that, could imagine focus to be diminished.
Oh yes and go Sarah indeed.

In the video he was seeing shit. Oddly enough I only really had odd visions in France right at the start of TCR (hitting the brakes for a cyclist in front of me on an open road) even though I seemed to be operating on less sleep than sensible through most of it. Seems I just get really tired such that I'll crash before I start seeing strange shit. Literally dozing off on the bike. Maybe he pushes through that stage? Guess this is what can happen if you push it too hard but it could've happened anyway, never know.
hippy
Anything can happen. Poor bloke. Go Sarah!
